Travel Opportunities

Missions

Israel scene FPOMissions aren't mere travel opportunities... Missions allow participants to get to know one another, learn about the communities they are visiting and see JUF dollars in action. See photos from past YLD missions.

Summer Mission to Israel

Each summer, YLD sends scores of young Chicagoans (part of a national delegation) to Israel for a life changing experience.  Activities include hiking Masada, floating in the Dead Sea, visiting the Western Wall and the Old City of Jerusalem, Yad Vashem (the National Holocaust Memorial Museum) white water rafting and fun.  Israel is a magical place and our Jewish homeland, the summer mission is one of the best ways to see it!
